Ojik (Fisher)
The negosek (stars) and their constellations help steer our thoughts and teachings, as much of our ancient knowledge originates from the sky. Each season the sky changes and familiar constellations are seen again.
The Ojik constellation or “Big Dipper” relates to the story of how the spring birds were imprisoned by ogres. Using his courage and wit, the tricky Fisher defeated the ogres and freed the captives. Like the nomadic fisher, always on the move in nature, this constellation is in constant motion around the North Pole.
